I just want to get to know you
But I can barely talk to you
You're so distant in conversation
Here I go again with a beautiful but troubled girl
God knows I'm not perfect
You might hate me if you got to know me
But you're so crazy that you won't notice
If you let me in your life
We both have a lot in common
We were both kicked around a lot in the fifth grade
And it's caused lasting problems
That you don't want to talk about
And I don't want to sing about
So let's just get together
I know you can't give me what I want
Still I love the enigma
I love the enigma of a beautiful but troubled girl
Your family, they all love me
But it don't matter, 'cause you'd rather that they not
And your friends think that I'm amazing
But you know I'm not 'cause I love you
Let's watch a DVD over at a friend's place
Hey what do you know?! We both love Garden State!
No, I don't think it's weird we met at Zaphod's
Let's get naked; I've got Sufjan on my ipod
It has been nice knowing you
But for my sake I'd best be moving on
Still I cherish our time together
Before we fucked it all up
You beautiful but troubled girl

Valois recommends:
Turn To Each Other
by And The Kids
MODERN CLASSIC - emotive blend of American folk and Canadian indie, MODERN CLASSIC alert. Proud to have played with and be friends with these people.
go to album
MODERN CLASSIC alert. Felicity's songwriting is fantastic and honestly I have a concussion and can't remember how to say why this is good but just trust me Sparklesaurus is great.
go to album
Like a light at the end of a BAD TUNNEL, I was NOT having fun in Montreal but Thanya Iyer's music made me go WOW because of all the STRONG JAZZ and BEAUTIFUL COMPSOTIONS. Arrangements? YES PLEASE.

Drunk Dial #12 - Gentleman Jesse
by Gentleman Jesse
Buoyant one-off release from a long-running Atlanta band who juggle garage rock, folk, and power pop; don't miss the Mark Morrison cover.
go to album
Post-punk full of ragged energy and the adventurousness and aggression of the early '80s underground from Portland's Escare.
go to album
15 years into their career, the Toronto indie rockers sound sharp and ebullient as ever.
